Black Panther, Nakia and Shuri movie costumes on display…

After the events of Captain America: Cvil War and the death of his father, Chadwick Boseman's 'T'Challa' heads back to Wakanda to claim his throne, but internal tribal challenges and external factions threatens to spill out of the isolated African nation and endanger the world in the first Black Panther solo movie.

The Black Panther gets a new updated look, with a more feline-like mask, in Ryan Coogler's movie and this sleek catsuit was photographed alongside other cool outfits from the film at ArcLight Hollywood cinema on January 19, 2018.

Ruth E. Carter was Costume Designer on the new Marvel Studios film starring the comic book company's first black superhero and responsible for dressing the inhabitants and heroes of the high-tech world of Wakanda.

Lupita Nyong'o plays Nakia, a former lover of T'Challa and an undercover agent of Wakanda's elite female fighting force, the Dora Milaje.

This exhibit also features her weapon of choice, a chakram ring-shaped blade (possibly made from Vibranium), and she wears a Wakandan Kimoyo bead bracelet, used for communication and more in the technologically advanced African nation.

For a closer look as Shuri's costume and her amazing panther-themed gauntlets, plus Forest Whitaker's 'Zuri' costume and Winston Duke's 'M'Baku' costume, take a look at these Black Panther movie costumes on display out of reflective cases at Disney's D23 Expo 2017 last July.
